Contributing

Feel free to open a ticket or fork the site and submit a pull request.

Note that the entire site content is driven with Markdown files -- including the metadata sections of those files!

The front page's content is in TOML variables between the +++ metadata markers in ./content/_index.md.

If you're intersted in updating the CSS, everything you need to tweak should be in ./sass/lfe/_variables.scss.

Dev Server

If you would like to run the site locally, you may do so with this command:

zola serve

This will start the site on a local dev server running on port 1111.

If you want to run on a different port, simply set the zola port option to your liking:

zola serve -p 5099

Publishing

To re-deploy the site with changes made to the above-mentioned files, simply do the following:

make publish

You may want to check the spelling first, though:

make spell-check

Publishing to Staging

The staging site is hosted in another LFE repo, and thus requires a custom remote URL to be added to your local git clone:

git remote add staging git@github.com:lfe/site-staging.git

With that in place, you can push your branch to that repo with:

git push staging <your branch name>

If you are pushing to a branch that is not the current default in staging, you'll want to change the default to your branch here:

• https://github.com/lfe/site-staging/settings

The Github Actions for deploying the site is set to only trigger on the main branch, so you'll want to manually kick off a deploy, when you're ready (the "Run workflow" drop-down at the top):
